Answer:

[tex]T = 25000 + 0.05x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Salary = 25000[/tex]

[tex]Commission = 5\%[/tex]

Required

Write an equation when sales = x

The equation can be written as:

[tex]Total (T) = Salary + Commission * Sales[/tex]

This gives

[tex]T = 25000 + 5\% * x[/tex]

Convert percentage to decimal

[tex]T = 25000 + 0.05 * x[/tex]

[tex]T = 25000 + 0.05x[/tex]
